Cincinnati's karaoke geography is unusually concentrated. The Northside neighborhood — specifically the Hamilton Avenue corridor — does most of the work. Northside Tavern runs "Kick Out the Jams Karaoke" Thursdays at 9 PM. The Hoffner Pub adds the Sunday session with the same hosts. Tillie's Lounge, the Northside LGBTQIA+ spot, handles Saturday nights with Will Corson. Three karaoke nights, three adjacent venues — one of the country's better Northside karaoke crawls if you want to stack them. Downtown's Tokyo Kitty on Race Street is the city's only dedicated karaoke bar — main stage open Tuesday through Sunday plus reservable private rooms. Strictly 21+. Pair Tokyo Kitty midweek with a Northside Sunday or Thursday and you've got the city's karaoke calendar covered.
